NetBIOS Peer to Peer Printing

How to Print Using NetBIOS in 
Windows

 95/98/Me/2000/XP, Windows

4.0, LAN Server and OS/2 Warp 

Server

Overview

Brother print server range supports SMB (server message block) 
over the TCP/IP protocol via the NetBIOS interface. This means that 
just like regular Windows

®

 PC's, Brother printers can appear in your 

network neighborhood. The main advantage of NetBIOS printing is 
that you are able to print from legacy DOS applications that are 
running on PC's that are connected to Microsoft networks.

Quick Tips:

1

The Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol 
automatically assigns an IP address from the range: 
169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255. If the APIPA protocol is 
disabled, the default IP address of a Brother print server is 
192.0.0.192. To change it, use the printer control panel (if 
applicable), the BRAdmin Professional, Web BRAdmin software 
or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the printer.

2

Refer to chapter 9 of this User’s Guide to learn how to configure 
the IP address on your printer. 

3

The default password for Brother print servers is 

access

.

4

The default domain name of the print server is 

WORKGROUP

, to 

change it use your web browser or the BRAdmin application.
